Yes..possible to flash MJ7 on top of MJ7 but not possible to give you official status.
As long as you have root..it will always be custom status.
One way to do it is to 'fake' it into official by using Wanam Exposed.
But it's only cosmetic...not a real official.

miracast
or if you were dumb and crazy OTA updates

Never use miracast.
And nobody with Knox 0x0 gonna use any OTA as you can get a new bootloader with the OTA updates

Ok thank you very much!!another question, can i flash an older firmware mj3 from mj7?

If you took the new bootloader no, not even with tripping knox ( u will get bootlooped)
If you didnt (by using proper urdlv/mobile odin) yes

please help I need to go back to MJ4 CSC

please help me, I was messing with my Note 3's CSC and now I'm on BMJ1 CSC. how can I go back to my stock CSC (MJ4 was the last 3 letters of the CSC)

×#1234#
Write down the csc on piece of paper
Www.sammobile.com/firmwares
Type in the csc minus the last 4 letters
Download the file ending with mj4
Either flash the full file or untar it and buile a tar.md5 with only cache.img.ext4

Nope you cannot downgrad from mj4, as it contains a new bootlaoder which prevents it.

This will NOT work.
You can try if you want (wonr trip knox or anything) but ull get bootlooped, better do a good backup.
Once u realized i was right, just reflash mj4 and evrthing will be fine again.

Hi! My nlte 3 SM-N9005 is running Mj3 and its quite unstable at some times.. can i flash a OTA in recovery to get Mj7? Its rooted and knox is 0x1 so dont think of that.

Anything else than root that i will lose?
Will it be stable or not?
Can i just re root then?

It'll be stable, I had major issues on MJ6 with apps stopping working etc, obviously I couldn't OTA update and it was a major annoyance. So i plugged it into KIES and updated through there, even though it told me it may have issues or not update due to modified software.
It worked fine, and my phone is stable, battery life is good and I just used CF-Auto root to re-root it again (I too had already flagged 0x1)
you will defo notice the improvement tho.

Yup sure as sure can be, and what KB said.

If you're worried because Kies said its unstable, don't be... Samsung is covering their ar$er by putting in these disclaimers....
And the best way to root is by using Mobile ODIN Pro to flash MJ7. You will keep root and the MJ3 bootloader. Not sure if that makes a major difference but it sure helps if you have the old root friendly bootloader...

I updated and it worked! My phone is no longer draining the battery! It boots right up! Wonderful!

One more question! When Kitkat arrives? Will we be able to update through Kies on 0x1 knox status and modified software installed?

Well.. now my phone takes 2 minutes to boot again. It might be TWRP... because it boots fast before i installed TWRP.. but after installing it.. it takes 2 minutes! What should i do? Anyone else experiencing this problem? Everything else works fine!
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Looks like a TWRP issue then, maybe try reinstalling TWRP or removing and seeing what happens.

Updated to Mj7 pushed from Samsung OTA.
Stil not stable. Almost every phone call a reboot ?

[Q] Root Verizon Note 3 MJ7 without Kingo?

Anthing out yet? I have been waiting patiently for an alternative, but have not heard of any yet. It would be great to restore Titanium Backup game saves and use Tasker again.

Without tripping your knox counter: NO

I did it just fine when first flashing a rom (came from latest update, have flashed jellybean, hyper, etc.) I'd try to just try flashing a rom after a clean/wipe with Safestrap. I went down as far as MK7. I think I had to flash the stock .pit file with odin one time to make it happen one time when I soft bricked
I remember reading that the odds of triggering a knox counter with a certain app over PC (rhymes with lingo) is something like 1-10,000.

So now there is no way to roll back ?

Nope! You can't rool back. You will soft brick ur phone using ODIN and even if youflash a custom ROM based on that older base, it won't boot.

If you are rooted with urdlv and kept the old bootloader it is possible with mobile odin, else no way
